Operations 

Manual 

 

2.1.2 Cancellation Ticket 

 

A cancellation ticket is created when a customer pushes the 

Cancel

  button 

during the course  of a transaction. The entry ticket that was inserted will be 

reissued as a 

Cancellation Ticket

. Any validation coupons that have been 

applied to the fee will be included on the cancellation ticket and processed as 

configured. 

 

2.1.3 QR Barcode (with FlexScan Barcode Imager Option) 

 

QR Barcodes can be used in multiple ways at the Exit Terminal. 

 

The first method is to use the QR code as a pass using the eFlexPass software. 

eFlexPass is responsible for generating QR passes that a parker may use to 

enter and exit the facility for a number of uses and/or a period of time. 

 

The second method is to use the QR code as a validation coupon using the 

eFlexPrint software. eFlexPrint is responsible for generating QR barcodes that a 

patron may use as a discount to their stay. See section 

3.4

 

Discount Types

 

for a 

detailed explanation of each discount available to a validation printed from the 

eFlexPrint module. 

 

2.2 Receipt 

 

Receipts can be configured to be printed automatically or upon request. Only 

one receipt is printed per ticket.
